Kerbins Black Hole

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

Hi Guys,

I just took a shot from the Mun while it wasnt receiving any Light from Kerbol.

Dont know the right name for that. New Moon, maybe?

Anyways, I wondered if someone could Photoshop a Gravity-Lense-Effect around this.

Pretty sure that it would look awesome

Doesn't work so well with this picture as long as you don't add in something that wasn't there before.

Here you go. It was easy, although it's not accurate.

Just use the pinch tool. Or any such distortion tool in image editor.

I don't know what you mean by Gravity-Lense-Effect but I made it to look kind of like the black holes from Space Engine.

I know re-touching KSP screens is truly a worthless endeavour... But here's a nice example of tweaking the saturation, contrast, and brightness; then adding a filter with selective focus:

Edit:

I don't know what you mean by Gravity-Lense-Effect

A gravity lense is the warped, and distorted appearance of electromagnetic radiation caused by it traveling through a spacetime curvature. Because light (in general relativity) follows the spacetime curve, and mass causes spacetime to distort; creating gravitational fields, you'll get a Phenomena known as light bending.

Why did you just take my phot and edit it instead of taking the original and making your own? I see the exact place where a star is warped on mine and yours, so I know it's mine.

Probably.

New moon(mun?) is when the Kerbin facing side is in shadow.

If Kerbin's shadow was blocking the light, which may not be simulated, it's Total Munar eclipse.

Yeah, the swirl is unrealistic. You need to copy the moon silhouette, then use a bulge or pinch tool, and paste a copy of the moon over it.

Dude, chill. It's not like I'm redistributing it as mine. I did that mainly for you, and partially out of boredom.

Oh, and the proper spelling would be "photo".

Black-hole Mun, won't you come, wash-away the rain... ok I'll shut-up now.

I don't know what compelled me, but I did a couple takes on this;

I took all the GUI items out except for Jeb Milly

And if you want it this a version with the craft taken out too (cos CS5's content aware delete is addictive).

And another (terrible attempt) where I tried to muck the craft up, didn't like it thou, but here it is;

It's not a swirl, it's a circular distortion effect.

[Galacticruler]

what WeeGee said.

[Designer225]

There should be dusts. Nice, though.

[SRV Ron]

A proper lensing effect from a Black Hole. (Space Engine at the center of a star cluster.)

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

Haha, you guys are awesome

One gravity lens. Fresh out of Gimp.
